Wasn't expecting it to veer from to a big picture story, but I'm glad it did.

As I suspected after reading the first 20 pages, this WAS as interesting and unflinching as the other book of hers I read, " Romance Or The End."

Thanks to some different mechanics and approaches, 🧟 "Separate Ways" is a short but sweet add-on for "Resident Evil 4." 🧟‍♂️Here's the link to my review:

So far this is as engaging and clever as the first book in this series.

Some writers are influenced by video games. Some by anime. Still others by Tori Amos. But for all three, and more, you have to go to David Edison, author of the sci-fi space Opera epic fantasy mash-up novel "Sandymancer." To do so, check out this exclusive interview.

Well, this was one weird but also wonderfully heart-wrenching -like story about grief and parenting and finding a new life in the ashes of the old.

If there's one person who always saves the world in stories, it's grandma. But while she's at it again in Melissa Lozada-Oliva's new novel "Candelaria," there's actually more to this story, as Lozada-Oliva explains in this exclusive interview.

So far, this is as interesting and unflinching as the book of hers I read a few months ago.

Wouldn't have bought this had I know they were 1 line poems in response to online comments. Hence why I read it all tonight; to get it out of the way.

A mixed bag, to be sure, but more good than bad. Or meh.

In Nghi Vo's new fantasy novella "Mammoths At The Gates" — the latest installment of her "Singing Hills Cycle" — the historian cleric Chih is going home for the first time in years, only to find not everything is as they left it. What does that mean? You'll have to read this exclusive Q&A to find out.
